2026 Royal Enfield Meteor 350: Road Test Review

Introduction

The Meteor 350 has been the torchbearer of Royal Enfield’s 349cc, J-series engine. Not only did it debut the new engine platform in 2020, but it also replaced the ageing Thunderbird 350 for good. Fast forward to 2026, and Royal Enfield has given a mid-life refresh to its popular cruiser.

For 2026, the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 gets new features and mechanical upgrades like an assist and slipper clutch. These not only improve its overall appeal but also elevate its ride experience. However, Royal Enfield has also done away with one feature, which was offered on the older model.
